Feature Request: Use a different colour to indicate the usernames of OP and you in the comments

It might help a bit. I remember Infinity used to do this.

+1 Seeing every commenter name in blue throws me off every time. In my mind, blue is for OP, orange is for myself, green is for mods/admins, purple is for the app developer, and black/gray for everyone else. Or some variant like that, I don’t remember exactly which colors Apollo used for reference.

Make it customizable please!

Those also seem to be the colors for boost, that would be great!

Good point. Flags or colours for other roles would also be useful.

Same but admins were red.

Hmm, how does this look?

That would also work. Looks good!

Im not sure what you mean, using Liftoff the OP has a little colored pill with "OP" next to their name?

OrkneyKomodo@lemmy.sdf.org · 1 pts · 3y

Yes. But I believe those were only added just as (or after/before) I poster this.

Yeah, I've been jumping between liftoff and voyager (can't decide which I prefer yet, mostly waiting for sync to come out for lemmy lol), and one thing I like about voyager is that it indicates who the OP is.

On kbin, OP replies are indicated by a dotted red line next to their post. There are other colors for replies as well but I'm not sure what dictates them.
